Hedera token was trading at $0.2458 on Monday, down by nearly 20% from its highest level this year. So, what next for the token amid ecosystem woes?<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hedera Hashgraph ecosystem woes<\/h2>\n<p>Hedera Hashgraph is one of the biggest players in the crypto industry, with its token having a market capitalization of over $10.3 billion.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, there are lingering concerns about its ecosystem, which is significantly smaller than other chains despite its collaborations with top companies like IBM, ServiceNow, and Google.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A closer look at Hedera shows that its ecosystem is relatively small and not as vibrant as other leading chains like Solana and BSC Chain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>DeFi Llama data shows that Hedera has just 18 dApps in the decentralized finance (DeFi) industry. 5 of these apps have no activity going on, with their total value locked being zero.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Hedera has a total value locked of just <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/defillama.com\/chain\/hedera\">$256 million<\/a>, with Stader, SaucerSwap, Bonzo Finance, and ICHI being the biggest players in the ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>While $256 million is a substantial amount, it is relatively insignificant in an industry with nearly $300 billion in assets. This situation is likely because the biggest players in DeFi like Uniswap, PancakeSwap, and AAVE have not leveraged its technology.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Hedera\u2019s case is different from other top cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and Solana. Ethereum has a market capitalization of over $520 billion and $203 billion in total value locked (TVL).<\/p>\n<p>Hedera also lags in the <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2025\/06\/19\/hbar-extends-losses-despite-hederas-major-audd-stablecoin-news\/\">stablecoin industry<\/a>, which is expected to do well in the next few years, with Visa estimating it to be worth over $1.6 trillion in this period.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Its stablecoin supply has plunged from this month\u2019s high of $208 million to the current <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/defillama.com\/chain\/hedera?stablecoinsMcap=true&amp;tvl=false\">$93 million<\/a>. $93 million is also an insignificant success in an industry worth over $270 billion today.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Hedera has no major market share in the crypto industry. For example, while Hedera <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/hedera.com\/ecosystem\/network-explorers\">lists<\/a> NFTs as a key part of its ecosystem, CryptoSlam data shows that it has no meaningful market share in the industry.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The same is true with other industries in the crypto industry. For example, it has no major market share in the gaming industry.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2024\/01\/25\/exclusive-interview-with-charles-adkins-the-new-hedera-president\/\">Exclusive interview with Charles Adkins, the new Hedera president<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Potential catalysts for the HBAR price<\/p>\n<p>The main reason why Hedera price has done well is its positioning as the biggest player in the enterprise industry. A closer look shows that it has partnerships with top companies like Dell, Google, LG, Nomura, an Australian Payments Plus.<\/p>\n<p>These companies are key parts of the governance ecosystem. Also, the assumption is that these companies will use its technology when building decentralized platforms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Hedera price is also expected to benefit from a potential HBAR ETF approval, which could lead to increased demand from investors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hedera price technical analysis<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image inv-component-break-container size-large\"><\/figure>\n<p>HBAR price chart | Source: TradingView<\/p>\n<p>The other bullish catalyst for the HBAR price is that it has strong technicals. It formed a double-bottom pattern at $0.1280, its lowest levels in April and June this year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Hedera moved above the neckline at $0.2288 and then retested it recently. A break-and-retest pattern is one of the most bullish signs in the market.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>HBAR price has formed a bullish pennant pattern, comprising of a vertical line and a symmetrical triangle. Therefore, the token will likely have a strong bullish breakout, with the next point to watch being at $0.3028, up by 23% from the current level. A move above that level will point to more gains, potentially to the 2025 high of $0.40.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2025\/08\/18\/hbar-price-analysis-what-next-for-hedera-amid-ecosystem-woes\/\">HBAR price analysis: What next for Hedera amid ecosystem woes?<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/\">Invezz<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HBAR price has remained under intense pressure this month as attempts to rebound hit a wall.
